Where’s the play button….?

Some people go through life at full speed, head down, intent on their goal. Some kick back relax and just let whatever happens, happen. Some are stuck in reverse their whole life. Some take it one day at a time. There are those of us that get up each morning with dread, and those that spring out of bed like they are some kind of jack-in-o-box (kids toy).

But what happens if you become stuck? What if you can’t just “Pull yourself together….”. What if you aren’t depressed, what if you are happy, normal…. What do you do if some unseen force presses pause? Where’s the remote to hit play again?

I agree with DaPoet, a good book and will add music, poems, other forms of art to swell into the soul for inspiration while everyone else speedily claps about. I have found breaking my heart over and over helps too. No time for happiness and normalcy! I kid, I kid.

I take those moments of pause and look for details that I happened to miss because of all of the other things my brain gets wrapped up. The moments of pause and feeling ok usually have some treasures stuck in them too, or they are letting the heart and mind settle before the next round of adventures. I feel uneasy when I have those moments, but I am trying to learn how to use them wisely. 🙂
